END DECEPTIVE PR ABOUT WOMEN’S SEXUAL HEALTH

Big Pharma has launched a deceptive public
relations campaign called “Even the
Score” to pressure the Food and Drug Administration to approve a
specific drug - flibanserin - for women’s sexual problems, a drug the FDA has
rejected for safety reasons twice already.

“Even the Score”
claims that the FDA is sexist because “26” drugs are approved for men’s sexual
problems and none for women. These numbers are false and have been debunked by
publications such as Slate, the Philadelphia Inquirer and the Wall Street
Journal.

The public must
reject the dishonest use of feminist language such as “choice” and “gender
equality.”

“Even the Score”
urges signing their petition that
states “We believe that women have the right to make their own informed
choices concerning their sexual health; that gender equality should
be the standard in access to sexual dysfunction treatments.” Where is independent testing for safety and
effectiveness in this proposal? Should prescription drugs simply be sold over
the counter and the public told to act on “informed choices” (often informed by
biased PR information)?

What does it mean to demand
that “gender equality” should be “the standard in access to sexual
dysfunction treatments” as opposed
to the FDA’s legal standards of science-based safety and efficacy? These became
the FDA’s standards as recently as 1962 because of the scandal around thalidomide
and birth defects. Science-based regulation must remain at the center of the
drug approval process.

Big Pharma has been
looking for blockbuster sex drugs for women since Viagra was approved in 1998 -
they even created a disease (“FSD – Female Sexual Dysfunction”) to do so- but
the only two drugs that reached the FDA have both been judged too risky for
approval.

Don’t be fooled by PR
flim-flam dressed up in the language of women’s rights. Let’s support the FDA
and demand that Big Pharma cancel its fraudulent PR campaigns.

We the American people NEED to know the TRUTH, so before you VOTE, watch this very highly informative video the liberal biased mainstream media underreports and will never show it to the American people: Hillary Clinton: A Career Criminal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kypl1MYuKDY

I am a student at the University of Minnesota, and I have chosen to do my material transits final paper on this drug. It is crazy that this drug was approved. My thesis for the paper claims that instead of this drug's approval pushing female equality forward, it only further hurts their cause.

Safety, effectiveness and actual medical need should be the main concerns for determining the approval of any drug by the FDA. There should be fully comprehensive, independent study done on the safety of this drug before it can even be considered for approval. Just because this person's sexual desire does not match yours, it doesn't automatically mean it needs to be "fixed"!
